Yarn: Ecobutterfly Organics Cotton Pakucho Sport in Golden Cafe

Needles: US Size 6

Started on: Mar. 25th

Finished on: Mar.26th

Comments/Modifications: This is from the Bare Naked Wools 2013 Club. I was in the mood to knit up something mindless and quick, so this fit the bill. I chose to knit Cloth B and C out of this yarn. When I first got this yarn, I actually wasn't too excited. I'm really not a fan of knitting with cotton.  Cotton doesn't have a lot of ease and is less forgiving. To me, it always feels a bit stiff and squeaky, it's by far not my favorite type of yarn. I probably only have one other skein of cotton in all my stash. I really only use cotton to make dishcloths. That being said, this Ecobutterfly Cotton was a lot softer than I expected. It didn't feel as rough on my hands. However, this yarn was very splitty. Even though both cloth patterns were mindless, I had to pay attention to my yarn to make sure it wasn't splitting.
